Chapter 59 The Seven Tribulations of the Strange World·Praying for Blood Rain
Accompanied by the old woman’s resurrection and stood up again.
In addition to the little girl crying with joy, the other refugees were also frightened and stepped back in horror.
I thought it was the old woman who was reluctant to part with her granddaughter and was so disturbed that she simply committed suicide.
Li also explained to everyone in time.
All this can be attributed to Xu Ke, the land lord, who has great powers and saves people in need.
After several performances, these refugees also sincerely respected the land master who protected this wasteland.
Li also took the opportunity to announce to everyone that this area could be leased to others for farming in the future.
Guarantee that the four seasons are favorable and the weather is smooth.
If they are willing to settle here after working for a few years, they can own the land they cultivate forever without spending a penny.
Soon, hundreds of people, under Li's command, began to build temporary straw sheds on the edge of the field.
Be prepared to wait until this period of time passes before building residential houses for people to live in.
The dissipated emotions of these people will be tonics that breed evil things.
And Xu Ke also needs to select talents from among them to work for him during his lifetime.
After death, it can turn into a spirit and evil spirit to wander around.
It is really a big project to feed and drink more than a hundred people in one go.
Li Shi alone cannot handle it.
But fortunately, some of these refugees are literate, and they are very organized in their work.
Therefore, he was also selected to temporarily help Li plan nearby fields, housing and other matters.
As expected, as Li said, the land around this wasteland is indeed rich in water and soil, and somehow, not even a single pest can be seen.
It really saves a lot of things, and the reclamation and cultivation is extremely smooth.
But what no one expected was.
This drought is far from over.
In the following months, not only did there be no precipitation anywhere, but the water lines of several surrounding rivers dropped significantly.
Some small rivers have even dried up completely, revealing cracked river beds and fish and shrimp that are smelly and rotten.
"No, this drought is too evil."
There have been severe droughts in the past, but they only affected one or two states at most.
In areas like theirs with dense waters and close to the sea, there is almost no threat of drought.
Nowadays, even water towns like theirs are suffering from such drought, and other state capitals still don’t know what the drought will be like.
Anyway, according to the latest refugees from other state capitals.
Those of them who were not seriously affected by the disaster were able to escape with enough energy.
Those areas that were really seriously affected by the disaster are no longer able to flee further.
And as natural disasters come, man-made disasters also come.
Those who fall out of grass become bandits and kill each other for a mouthful of food.
There are also those who feed on ‘rice meat’.
Even corrupt officials who took advantage of the natural disaster to make a fortune.
But if it is just like this, the most you can say is "A Thousand Miles Away".
But as a large number of people died and grievances accumulated, the number of strange and evil objects also increased exponentially.
Even if he lives in the jungle, Xu Ke can sense the resentment between heaven and earth that almost reaches the sky.
All evil creatures seem to be bathed in the most abundant nutrients, entering a more active stage, and their evolution speed has also been greatly increased.
Although the land of great evil has benefited a lot from this, the future of this world is really not optimistic.
[Seven Tribulations in the Weird World·Praying for Blood Rain]
[Praying for Blood Rain: The first disaster in the weird end of the world, thousands of miles of red land, evil breeds, which is a precursor to the death of the righteous way and the prosperity of the evil way. It begins with drought and ends with blood rain. 】
“Pray for blood rain?”
With something in his heart, Xu Ke passed through the dangerous place and seemed to sense the voice coming from his corpse’s ear.
Although I don’t know why I got the information about this so-called ‘Seven Tribulations of the World’.
But if this disaster is just the beginning, then we have to be more prepared in the future.
Simply improving the level of the ferocious land is not enough.
You must match the strength of your soul with the level of the evil place. Otherwise, it will repeat what happened before, with the result of a child swinging a sledgehammer and unable to perfectly control the power of the evil land itself.
As for the shortcut to strengthening the soul, there are generally two methods for Weird.
One is to devour the souls of others on a large scale.
The other is to absorb the soul energy of others by constantly immersing them in fear.
But the disadvantage of the former is that it sucks the soul, which will inevitably absorb the impurities of the opponent's soul.
If you take too much, you may rape your customers and deceive your masters, which will affect Xu Ke's own character.
The problem with the latter is that although there are no side effects of absorbing soul energy, the speed is still not fast enough.
Even if Xu Ke is exhausted to death, he can only scare several people at the same time.
And if full power is given to the strange and evil things under their control, their intimidation methods are too simple and they cannot grasp the rhythm of control.
It is easy to become a fishermen, frightening the opponent to death in one breath, and the harvested soul energy will be very limited.
Therefore, Xu Ke planned to find another way, from the direction of Shinto practitioners, to study the method of spiritual cultivation to strengthen the soul.
Through people's worship and incense as a way, they use their prayers to strengthen their souls.
Generally speaking, as long as there are enough people worshiping and their thoughts are sincere and firm enough, even a god that does not exist at all can be 'turned into something' by people's thoughts.
Therefore, for Shinto practice, ordinary humans are the most precious resource.
Just when Xu Ke ordered to go down and prepare for Li to mobilize the refugees to build an "earth temple" for himself.
Variables happened suddenly...
Just as Xu Ke expected, he recruited a large number of refugees to fill his newly expanded sphere of influence.
The government of Tianhu County will not sit back and watch the development here.
Just as the wasteland was initially reclaimed, a large number of simple but neat houses were built.
Although everything is beginning to take shape, it is now a time of prosperity.
A group of heavily armed officers and soldiers walked over, surrounded by a tall, thin, middle-aged man with a bronze face.
This man was Tang Bowen, the local county magistrate. He rode a tall horse and had a beard more than three fingers long.
He is neither civilized nor martial, and his temperament is really weird.
He was hearing that his brother-in-law had strayed into a strange situation and was acting crazy as if he was insane.
Then he gave up the good piece of wasteland he had set his sights on to others.
So Tang Bowen personally led his team to prepare to deal with the strange evil spirits entrenched here.
But what needs to be solved first...
"Come here, arrest the anti-people who colluded with Weiwei."
Of course he was referring to the Li family.
In fact, Tang Bowen has already locked the clue on Li.
But when he saw the deserted fields being cultivated by the refugees, it was a prosperous scene.
So he deliberately delayed it for a few months. When the place was full of fruits, he would come forward to arrest Li.
At that time, wouldn’t these hundreds of acres of fertile farmland, plus half a year’s harvest, fall directly into his pocket?
Li's family property will also be wiped out.
Although the refugees are afraid of the fierce officers and soldiers.
But thinking back to Li's kindness, plus the injustice accumulated in my heart during this period.
They all spontaneously blocked the field, forming a human wall, trying to protect Li who was patrolling the farmland.
"Oh?"
Xu Ke looked at the officers and soldiers surrounding them, and then at Tang Bowen, who stood out from the crowd.
The reputation of this dog official is notorious in Tianhu County. He is cunning and vicious, and he flatters others and suppresses others.
As the saying goes, the yamen door opens to the south. If you have reason or money, don't come in.
Since the other party came to seek death on his own, it was just a good idea to use his head.
Xu Ke immediately gave Li an order, asking her to find a remote place with no people to temporarily hide from the limelight, and leave the rest to him.
Li had no doubts and decisively agreed to Xu Ke.
After a while, 'Li' walked out of the depths of the farmland.
He was very cooperative and was put into the shackles by several officers and soldiers, but he was very courageous and kept silent. He was taken away by the officers and soldiers in silence throughout the whole process.
No one noticed that this "Mr. Li's" eyes were a little stiff, his expression was weird, and his movements were rigid, as if
